Where the Stills' 2003 debut earned the young Montreal group comparisons to moody British New Wave icons such as Echo and the Bunnymen, Without Feathers evokes lighter, more up-to-date Brits like Keane and Coldplay. The first album's layered guitars and propulsive drums are downplayed in favor of prominent vocals and less compelling arrangements -- the middling tempos of plodding tracks like "Halo the Harpoons" and "It Takes Time" underscore the new lineup's shortcomings.
